Close

Gotta be close

I wake with this longing every day

Wanting to be near You, know Your ways

But when I start to think that sin has burned my bridges

I'm reminded of Your promises to me

And I know

Neither death nor life can separate

Jesus' blood

Is keeping me in the vicinity

But I still want more

I'm like the deer that's panting for the water

All I'm asking of You

Is to be close

That's all I wanna do

Is to be close to You

That's all I want from You, yeah

Singular desire, that's what I'm after

(Gotta be

Gotta be close)

I realize that I drifted away

Distracted by the worries of the day

But You held Your position, You never moved

Now I'm shifting my life to bring me closer to You

And I know

Neither death nor life can separate

Jesus' blood

Is keeping me in the vicinity

But I still want more

I'm like the deer that's panting for the water

All I'm asking of You

Is to be close

That's all I wanna do

Is to be close to You

That's all I want from You, yeah

Singular desire, that's what I'm after

(Gotta be

Gotta be) Close

I was slipping in the wrong direction

Wondering why I felt isolation

But You never let me go, You're calling me

Now closer to You is where I wanna be

(Gotta be close)

Right here in Your presence

(It's what I want the most)

I need You every second

(Gotta be close)

Gotta be close, draw me nearer, blessed Lord

(It's what I want the most)

I want You the most

(I gotta be close

That's all I wanna do

Is to be close to You

That's all I want from You, yeah)

Singular desire, that's what I'm after

(Gotta be

Gotta be close)

I gotta be close

(Gotta be close, close

That's all I wanna do) I gotta be close

(Is to be close to You

That's all I want from You, yeah

Singular desire, that's what I'm after)

(Gotta be

Gotta be close)

Said I gotta, gotta be close

That's what I want from You, yeah

That's all I wanna do, yeah

I wanna, I gotta

(I wanna be

I gotta be

I need to be

Close to you)

Lift your voice and say

Wanna be close

Everybody put your hands together

I really wanna, wanna be close

(I wanna be

I gotta be

I need to be)

Close to you
